For the best.

It takes more time than I have ever had
Drains the life from me,
makes me want to forget
As young as I was, I felt older back then
More disciplined, stronger and certain

But I was scared to death of eternity
I was saved by grace
but destroyed by naivety
and I lied to myself
and said it was for the best

My faith is replaced with a logic so cold
I've disregarded what I was
Now that I am older
and I know much more than I did back then
but the more I learn
the more I can't understand
and I have become content with this life that I lead

and I lie to myself
and say "it's for the best."

We're moving forward, but holding ourselves back
and We're waiting on something that will never come
